E. Incident Evaluation Restore

The NexLog DX-Series supports restoring incidents across multiple recorders. Here we’ll describe this process using a NAS Server as an example.

Once you’ve ensured that your NAS drive is set up with two separate directories, one which will archive your recordings, and the other that will archive your incident, you can connect the MediaWorks DX system to the NAS shared folders.

The recordings will be archived to NAS simply by selecting “Start Archive”

In order to Archive the incident, you must first schedule a “Backup Incidents Evaluation Metadata” in the “Utilities” section by selecting the correct archive drive to back it up to.

Now that the incident and recordings have been properly archived to the NAS drive, the files can be retrieved on the target NexLog DX-Series system by connecting to the NAS drives mentioned above.

Note

In order for the target system to connect to the archived data ensure that “Enable Folders” is disabled.”

After connecting the NAS drives to the target DX-series system, first select “Archive Transfer” for the recordings NAS folder to transfer the recordings to the target system, then once that is done select “Restore Metadata” to transfer the incident to the target system. In MediaWorks DX, you can now see the shared archive incident along with its associated calls which can be played back.
